    lookin good my man :rockon:


    I was gonna try for a close sided and peg board backed rack but adam said in another thread he finds they feed and grow better in open racks - though he never did explain why ( hint , hint :P ).

    How tall is the whole rack? I was thinking of putting the corns in the same rack as the royals but that would mean it would be at least 6 of those tubs high ( + at least one extra shelf if I add in the housie) and I have a horrible feeling that's impractical as it would be taller than I am :oops: .

    Do have one usefull idea - if you find those dividers begin to move under snake power a couple of holes drilled in the tub and divider and a couple of pegs would be an easy fix, or did you silicon them in?

    And cute snake :)

    Looks really good. I will say that you will probably be replacing the wood for the dividers and shelfs within a year or so. Humidity and particle board do not mix well......LOL I like the size you chose, and the design very much.

    A couple of people asked how i rigged up the heating, i got my flexwatt through the post a few dyas ago after a six week wait! :mad:
    Well i've only done the first two shelves, as they are the only tubs full atm, but there in serial and i'm sure you all get the idea. Here are a couple of pics:-

    sorry for the hijack but I noticed you are from the uk, this is probably a dumb question but are you by any chance a soccer (football) fan?

    Hey Graham,


    How's the rack working out now you've had time to settle it all in?

    Did you ever get more snakes to fill it as planned?

    Also wanted to ask if the tubs sliding across it affects the flexwatt? does it wear or anything?
